About us
- The International Credit Insurance & Surety Association (ICISA) brings together the world’s leading providers of trade credit insurance and/or surety bonds. Founded in 1928 as the first dedicated trade credit insurance association, ICISA broadened its focus in the 1950s with the addition of sureties to the association. Today, our membership includes insurers offering whole of turnover and single risk protection, representing the great majority of private credit insurance capacity worldwide. Meanwhile, our surety members deliver bonding in diverse industries, including construction, judicial proceedings, licensing and many more. Finally, recognising their core role in the credit insurance and surety ecosystem, ICISA also includes the major reinsurance providers in these markets.

Our focus

Insurance
regulation

With the emergence of Solvency II and other risk-based capital regimes, there has been a period of rapid change in prudential rules for insurers.

Banking
rules

The relationship between credit insurance and banking is an important and growing one.

State-aid
(Covid-19)

State aid refers broadly to interventions made by countries in support of specific companies or in other ways engaging in private markets.

Technology and
innovation

Credit insurers and sureties (as well as their reinsurers) analyse large quantities of data and often must make rapid, automated decisions.

Environmental and
social governance

How we respond to the existing and emerging challenges of climate change, demographic shifts and socio-economic challenges are the major questions facing governments, businesses and individuals right now.
